Slow Burners: Sean Johnston on the 13 Songs that Shaped A Love From Outer Space

Artists discuss the 13 records that shaped their lives

10. Bernardino Femminielli‘Ô Signe Des Temps (IUEKE Dub Remix)’

I think we’ve got to have this really. It’s not from Bloc Warehouse, which is where we went after Corsica Studios, but I think we really need to have a French cover version of ‘Sign o’ the Times’ on The Quietus list don’t we? As you saw this one took me a while to track down online as well because, well, it’s a bit obscure to put it mildly. But there’s always space for the less obvious numbers on our dancefloor. Especially as this is such a slow-burner of a track that’s really atmospheric with those Prince guitar licks shot all the way through.
